Could Be pests

What shall I do?

### StringofMonsteras kommentierte am 2024-05-25

Diatomaceous Earth should help! Just put it on the leaves and quarantine it until there are no signs of pests

Check the roots. It could be root bound. You will also see if it has root rot when you take off the pot. I recommend putting it in a pot with drain holes.

This baby is so giant and tall 😂 dont know how I can do this

If the pot doesn’t have a hole, that’s a non-negotiable. Probably time to repot. And be sure to feed it plant food! Mine loves a humidifier.
